FORT COLLINS — Colorado State’s men’s basketball program has received an oral commitment from 6-foot-9, 230-pound Daniel Mulamba of Southwestern Christian (Junior) College in Texas, according to GoldandGreenNews.com, the CSU-based affiliate of rivals.com.

A native of South Africa, Mulamba averaged 12 points and 10 rebounds as a freshman at SWCC.

He becomes the second known commitment for CSU, joining 6-2 guard Jeremiah Paige of Aurora’s Rangeview High School.

Per NCAA rules, CSU coach Larry Eustachy is prohibited from talking about specific recruits until they sign national letters of intent. But Eustachy told me Monday that he may sign up to four or five players for the current recruiting cycle.
